With the virtual mapped linear p2m list the post-init mmu operations
must be used for setting up the p2m mappings, as in case of
CONFIG_FLATMEM the init routines may trigger BUGs.
paging_init() sets up all infrastructure needed to switch to the
post-init mmu ops done by xen_post_allocator_init(). With the virtual
mapped linear p2m list we need some mmu ops during setup of this list,
so we have to switch to the correct mmu ops as soon as possible.
The p2m list is usable from the beginning, just expansion requires to
have established the new linear mapping. So the call of
xen_remap_memory() had to be introduced, but this is not due to the
mmu ops requiring this.
Summing it up: calling xen_post_allocator_init() not directly after
paging_init() was conceptually wrong in the beginning, it just didn't
matter up to now as no functions used between the two calls needed
some critical mmu ops (e.g. alloc_pte). This has changed now, so I
corrected it.

At start of the day the Xen hypervisor presents a contiguous mfn list
to a pv-domain. In order to support sparse memory this mfn list is
accessed via a three level p2m tree built early in the boot process.
Whenever the system needs the mfn associated with a pfn this tree is
used to find the mfn.
Instead of using a software walked tree for accessing a specific mfn
list entry this patch is creating a virtual address area for the
entire possible mfn list including memory holes. The holes are
covered by mapping a pre-defined page consisting only of "invalid
mfn" entries. Access to a mfn entry is possible by just using the
virtual base address of the mfn list and the pfn as index into that
list. This speeds up the (hot) path of determining the mfn of a
pfn.

Early in the boot process the memory layout of a pv-domain is changed
to match the E820 map (either the host one for Dom0 or the Xen one)
regarding placement of RAM and PCI holes. This requires removing memory
pages initially located at positions not suitable for RAM and adding
them later at higher addresses where no restrictions apply.
To be able to operate on the hypervisor supported p2m list until a
virtual mapped linear p2m list can be constructed, remapping must
be delayed until virtual memory management is initialized, as the
initial p2m list can't be extended unlimited at physical memory
initialization time due to it's fixed structure.
A further advantage is the reduction in complexity and code volume as
we don't have to be careful regarding memory restrictions during p2m
updates.

The 3 level p2m tree for the Xen tools is constructed very early at
boot by calling xen_build_mfn_list_list(). Memory needed for this tree
is allocated via extend_brk().
As this tree (other than the kernel internal p2m tree) is only needed
for domain save/restore, live migration and crash dump analysis it
doesn't matter whether it is constructed very early or just some
milliseconds later when memory allocation is possible by other means.
This patch moves the call of xen_build_mfn_list_list() just after
calling xen_pagetable_p2m_copy() simplifying this function, too, as it
doesn't have to bother with two parallel trees now. The same applies
for some other internal functions.
While simplifying code, make early_can_reuse_p2m_middle() static and
drop the unused second parameter. p2m_mid_identity_mfn can be removed
as well, it isn't used either.

Do not set the _PAGE_IOMAP flag in pte_pfn_to_mfn() and do not use it

When RANDOMIZE_BASE (KASLR) is enabled; or the sum of all loaded
modules exceeds 512 MiB, then loading modules fails with a warning
(and hence a vmalloc allocation failure) because the PTEs for the
newly-allocated vmalloc address space are not zero.
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 494 at linux/mm/vmalloc.c:128
vmap_page_range_noflush+0x2a1/0x360()
This is caused by xen_setup_kernel_pagetables() copying
level2_kernel_pgt into level2_fixmap_pgt, overwriting many non-present
entries.
Without KASLR, the normal kernel image size only covers the first half
of level2_kernel_pgt and module space starts after that.
L4[511]->level3_kernel_pgt[510]->level2_kernel_pgt[ 0..255]->kernel
[256..511]->module
[511]->level2_fixmap_pgt[ 0..505]->module
This allows 512 MiB of of module vmalloc space to be used before
having to use the corrupted level2_fixmap_pgt entries.
With KASLR enabled, the kernel image uses the full PUD range of 1G and
module space starts in the level2_fixmap_pgt. So basically:
L4[511]->level3_kernel_pgt[510]->level2_kernel_pgt[0..511]->kernel
[511]->level2_fixmap_pgt[0..505]->module
And now no module vmalloc space can be used without using the corrupt
level2_fixmap_pgt entries.
Fix this by properly converting the level2_fixmap_pgt entries to MFNs,
and setting level1_fixmap_pgt as read-only.
A number of comments were also using the the wrong L3 offset for
level2_kernel_pgt. These have been corrected.

"This is the revamp of the 32-bit vdso and the associated cleanups.
This adds timekeeping support to the 32-bit vdso that we already have

remain in the embedded space for a very long time to come.
This removes the traditional COMPAT_VDSO support; the configuration

produce correct results but obviously suffer a performance penalty.
Only one beta version of glibc was affected, but that version was
unfortunately included in one OpenSUSE release.
This is not the end of the vdso cleanups. Stefani and Andy have
agreed to continue work for the next kernel cycle; in fact Andy has
already produced another set of cleanups that came too late for this
cycle.
An incidental, but arguably important, change is that this ensures
that unused space in the VVAR page is properly zeroed. It wasn't
before, and would contain whatever garbage was left in memory by BIOS
or the bootloader. Since the VVAR page is accessible to user space
this had the potential of information leaks"

This reverts commit a9c8e4beee.
PTEs in Xen PV guests must contain machine addresses if _PAGE_PRESENT
is set and pseudo-physical addresses is _PAGE_PRESENT is clear.
This is because during a domain save/restore (migration) the page
table entries are "canonicalised" and uncanonicalised". i.e., MFNs are
converted to PFNs during domain save so that on a restore the page
table entries may be rewritten with the new MFNs on the destination.
This canonicalisation is only done for PTEs that are present.
This change resulted in writing PTEs with MFNs if _PAGE_PROTNONE (or
_PAGE_NUMA) was set but _PAGE_PRESENT was clear. These PTEs would be
migrated as-is which would result in unexpected behaviour in the
destination domain. Either a) the MFN would be translated to the
wrong PFN/page; b) setting the _PAGE_PRESENT bit would clear the PTE
because the MFN is no longer owned by the domain; or c) the present
bit would not get set.
Symptoms include "Bad page" reports when munmapping after migrating a
domain.

bisected the problem to commit 1667918b64 ("mm: numa: clear numa

The problem was related to how xen translates ptes because it was not

a pteval_present helper for use by xen so both bare metal and xen use
the same code when checking if a PTE is present.

Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"This has tons of fixes and two major features which are concentrated
around the Xen SWIOTLB library.
The short <blurb> is that the tracing facility (just one function) has
been added to SWIOTLB to make it easier to track I/O progress.
Additionally under Xen and ARM (32 & 64) the Xen-SWIOTLB driver
"is used to translate physical to machine and machine to physical
addresses of foreign[guest] pages for DMA operations" (Stefano) when
booting under hardware without proper IOMMU.
There are also bug-fixes, cleanups, compile warning fixes, etc.
The commit times for some of the commits is a bit fresh - that is b/c
we wanted to make sure we have the Ack's from the ARM folks - which
with the string of back-to-back conferences took a bit of time. Rest
assured - the code has been stewing in #linux-next for some time.
Features:
- SWIOTLB has tracing added when doing bounce buffer.
- Xen ARM/ARM64 can use Xen-SWIOTLB. This work allows Linux to
safely program real devices for DMA operations when running as a
guest on Xen on ARM, without IOMMU support. [*1]
- xen_raw_printk works with PVHVM guests if needed.
Bug-fixes:
- Make memory ballooning work under HVM with large MMIO region.
- Inform hypervisor of MCFG regions found in ACPI DSDT.
- Remove deprecated IRQF_DISABLED.
- Remove deprecated __cpuinit.

This patch add support for dynamic allocation of split page table lock
if we can't embed it to struct page.
page->ptl is unsigned long now and we use it as spinlock_t if
sizeof(spinlock_t) <= sizeof(long), otherwise it's pointer to spinlock_t.
The spinlock_t allocated in pgtable_page_ctor() for PTE table and in
pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() for PMD table. All other helpers converted to
support dynamically allocated page->ptl.

Use xen_alloc_coherent_pages and xen_free_coherent_pages to allocate or
free coherent pages.
We need to be careful handling the pointer returned by
xen_alloc_coherent_pages, because on ARM the pointer is not equal to
phys_to_virt(*dma_handle). In fact virt_to_phys only works for kernel
direct mapped RAM memory.
In ARM case the pointer could be an ioremap address, therefore passing
it to virt_to_phys would give you another physical address that doesn't
correspond to it.
Make xen_create_contiguous_region take a phys_addr_t as start parameter to
avoid the virt_to_phys calls which would be incorrect.

Make a copy of the IDT (as seen via the "sidt" instruction) read-only.
This primarily removes the IDT from being a target for arbitrary memory
write attacks, and has the added benefit of also not leaking the kernel
base offset, if it has been relocated.
We already did this on vendor == Intel and family == 5 because of the
F0 0F bug -- regardless of if a particular CPU had the F0 0F bug or
not. Since the workaround was so cheap, there simply was no reason to
be very specific. This patch extends the readonly alias to all CPUs,
but does not activate the #PF to #UD conversion code needed to deliver
the proper exception in the F0 0F case except on Intel family 5
processors.

Invoking arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() results in calls to
preempt_enable()/disable() which may have performance impact.
Since lazy MMU is not used on bare metal we can patch away
arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode() so that it is never called in such
environment.

bare metal. This patch resolves that performance regression. It is

which fails. xen_setup_kernel_pagetable recycles some of the Xen's
page-table entries when it has switched over to its Linux page-tables.
Right before try to clear the page, we make a hypercall to change
it from _RO to _RW and that works (otherwise we would hit an BUG()).
And the _RW flag is set for that page:
(XEN) L1[0x1c7] = 001000004885f067 0000000000004dc7
The error code is 3, so PFEC_page_present and PFEC_write_access, so page is
present (correct), and we tried to write to the page, but a violation
occurred. The one theory is that the the page entries in hardware
(which are cached) are not up to date with what we just set. Especially
as we have just done an CR3 write and flushed the multicalls.
This patch does solve the problem by flusing out the TLB page
entry after changing it from _RO to _RW and we don't hit this
issue anymore.

With commit 8170e6bed4 ("x86, 64bit: Use a #PF handler to materialize
early mappings on demand") we started hitting an early bootup crash
where the Xen hypervisor would inform us that:
(XEN) d7:v0: unhandled page fault (ec=0000)
(XEN) Pagetable walk from ffffea000005b2d0:
(XEN) L4[0x1d4] = 0000000000000000 ffffffffffffffff

(XEN) Domain 7 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#3:
(XEN) ----[ Xen-4.2.0 x86_64 debug=n Not tainted ]----
.. that Xen was unable to context switch back to dom0.
Looking at the calling stack we find:
[<ffffffff8103feba>] xen_get_user_pgd+0x5a <--
[<ffffffff8103feba>] xen_get_user_pgd+0x5a
[<ffffffff81042d27>] xen_write_cr3+0x77

[<ffffffff81ac293f>] setup_arch+0x742
[<ffffffff81666d71>] printk+0x48
We are trying to figure out whether we need to up-date the user PGD as
well. Please keep in mind that under 64-bit PV guests we have a limited
amount of rings: 0 for the Hypervisor, and 1 for both the Linux kernel
and user-space. As such the Linux pvops'fied version of write_cr3
checks if it has to update the user-space cr3 as well.
That clearly is not needed during early bootup. The recent changes (see
above git commit) streamline the x86 page table allocation to be much
simpler (And also incidentally the #PF handler ends up in spirit being
similar to how the Xen toolstack sets up the initial page-tables).
The fix is to have an early-bootup version of cr3 that just loads the
kernel %cr3. The later version - which also handles user-page
modifications will be used after the initial page tables have been
setup.
[ hpa: removed a redundant #ifdef and made the new function __init.
Also note that x86-32 already has such an early xen_write_cr3. ]

As Mukesh explained it, the MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_ALL allows the
hypervisor to do a TLB flush on all active vCPUs. If instead
we were using the generic one (which ends up being xen_flush_tlb)
we end up making the MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_LOCAL hypercall. But
before we make that hypercall the kernel will IPI all of the
vCPUs (even those that were asleep from the hypervisor
perspective). The end result is that we needlessly wake them
up and do a TLB flush when we can just let the hypervisor
do it correctly.
This patch gives around 50% speed improvement when migrating
idle guest's from one host to another.

being set to NULL on Xen (but not baremetal). We had a similar issue
in the past with {write|read}_msr_safe and this fills the three
missing ones. The other bug-fix is to make the console output (hvc)
be capable of dealing with misbehaving backends and not fall flat on
its face. Lastly, a quirk for older XenBus implementations that came
with an ancient v3.4 hypervisor (so RHEL5 based) - reading of certain
non-existent attributes just hangs the guest during bootup - so we
take precaution of not doing that on such older installations.
Feature:
- Register a pfn_is_ram helper to speed up reading of /proc/vmcore.
Bug-fixes:
- Three pvops call for Xen were undefined causing BUG_ONs.
- Add a quirk so that the shutdown watches (used by kdump) are not
used with older Xen (3.4).
- Fix ungraceful state transition for the HVC console."

A long time ago, in v2.4, VM_RESERVED kept swapout process off VMA,
currently it lost original meaning but still has some effects:
| effect | alternative flags
-+------------------------+---------------------------------------------
1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO
2| skip in core dump | VM_IO, VM_DONTDUMP
3| do not merge or expand | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
4| do not mlock | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct. Seems like nobody
cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only
reduces total_vm showed in proc.
Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.
remap_pfn_range() and io_remap_pfn_range() set VM_IO|VM_DONTEXPAND|VM_DONTDUMP.
remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.
